On Page 20 of Lessons from the Source, in the section about illusions, the voice speaking through the writings asks: How would you function in your life if you knew that every situation was going to work out perfectly? That question came to my mind this morning immediately after learning that Lessons from the Source [...]

For most of my life, part of my morning routine has been sitting down with a cup of coffee and the morning newspaper. There’s something oddly comforting and grounding about being able to actually hold the paper in my hand and peruse it without any rush. Newspapers are in trouble because many people in recent [...]

Life is a web of intersecting paths, and by the time you get to my age, there have been plenty of intersections. Sometimes those paths cross briefly, and sometimes they merge for the rest of the journey. I’ve been thinking a lot recently about some of the folks whose paths have crossed and merged with [...]

I’m guessing I must have been 11 or 12 years old when my Dad wrote this in my autograph book: Many people are watching you to see what you will do with your life. Do not disappoint these people. Do your best in whatever you do. Your best is none too good to fulfill their [...]

One of the biggest and most pleasant surprises for me after publishing Lessons from the Source was the number of people who began contacting me to thank me for “coming out of the closet” and going public about the fact that I had been doing this kind of spiritual writing for so many years. As [...]

I woke up yesterday feeling pretty grumpy, thinking about how tired and overworked and pressured I felt. (Of course, when you work alone, there’s only one person to blame for all of that.) My morning devotionals helped bring a feeling of greater peace, but I certainly wasn’t feeling or expressing much joy. I had coffee [...]

As my family and friends will tell you, my mind stores an astonishing number of seemingly trivial bits of information that often manage to jump to the front of my brain and out of my mouth for no apparent reason. It’s an enjoyable, but odd, phenomenon. This morning I remembered a phrase my mother quoted [...]
Welcome to my blog. I’m glad you’re here. Blogging is an entirely new adventure for me, and I’m excited about being able to visit with you in this way.
The musings about life and spirituality that I’ll be sharing with you will be from the perspective of a 66-year-old guy who spent most of his life trying to figure out what he wanted to be when he grew up ― and finally got it.
You can find out about my book, Lessons from the Source, on the rest of this website, but this blog is a place for sharing thoughts and ideas.
We’re all on the spiritual path together, and we all have insights and perspectives to share with each other. My hope is that some of mine will be helpful and thought provoking for you.
Thanks for visiting. Many blessings.
Jack Armstrong
